Understanding the Books of the Old Testament: A Guide to Bible Study for Laymen
Editor: Patrick H. Carmichael
Publisher: John Knox Press, Richmond, VA (1952)
A wonderful artifact of mid-century American Protestant scholarship. Prepared by six distinguished scholars, this volume was designed to make the complexities of the Old Testament accessible to the everyday reader. Published by the renowned John Knox Press, it remains a classic example of the \"Layman\'s Guide\" era of theological publishing.
Condition: This is a well-preserved Second Printing. The terracotta cloth boards are sturdy with a sharp gilt emblem. The interior is clean and free of handwriting or highlighting. The dust jacket is present and shows typical vintage wear, including chipping, tears, rubbing to the edges and minor creasing. The spine of the book shows sun-fading (common for this era\'s cloth).
A solid, collectible copy for students of biblical history or collectors of John Knox Press editions.
